    Lake Of The Ozarks Shootout 2025

    Yeah, the course was not straight and they barely missed the peninsula at the end. They were not the only boat that could not stay in the shutdown area because the course had a curve to it before open water. I'm surprised they allowed that after the first really fast boat that could not stay on...

    Ryan Beckley new APBA Offshore Chair

    And his first event was a really tough one. Wind, giant waves, fog, etc. And three boats missed the start buoy. Fog?, pace boat?, penalties and appeals ongoing.

    Knock on wood, our Deere has lasted 25 years and we have replaced only 3 belts. And I do the road edge, plus the lawn, which is almost 1/4th mile of gravel. Gravel is really hard on blades by the way.

    Oh yeah, at least one guy...... And no, it is not a paid position. Travel expenses for required trips are covered to a certain point.

    I sure hope the NFL dumps his ass. I hate cheaters, and Michigan is lucky that Harbaugh has left. If he hadn't, and Michigan had not already done a bunch of penalties they would have not been playing in any playoffs for two years. I still think they should have taken their championship away...

    "Official" NFL Smack Talkin' Thread

    How the hell can the Vikings put gay guys in as cheerleaders? Is the Governor running the Vikings now? There are probably tampons in the Vikings locker room? Are there that many gays in Minnesota that they will now have bigger gates at the stadium for home games? Geez I will make sure to never...

    2025 Great Lakes Grand Prix, Michigan City

    Based on the video evidence they showed to me that they submitted in the appeal, I could see no way that they should have been penalized in the first place. I'm thinking the referee didn't know the rules.....

    2025 Great Lakes Grand Prix, Michigan City

    Well, they got it changed to the actual results of the race. I was at Skater yesterday and Chris Grant was there. He said he was told the vote was unanimous that there was no penalty, the start was completely legit. From Speedboat Magazine WPRA Overturns Michigan City Penalties Against CJ...
